Matt Forde: End Of An Era Tour

Leading political comedian and satirist Matt Forde (British Scandal, Spitting Image, The Last Leg) makes this his personal mission.
'Possibly the best political comedy show on the Fringe' ★★★★★ The Telegraph
'Our foremost satirical stand-up... Whatever your politics, you’ll find excellence here' The Sunday Times
'Demand to see Forde in action at the Pleasance outstrips supply – the place is rammed…dependably slick' The Daily Telegraph
'The excellent Matt Forde… even more accurate than Starmer’s needling voice' The Spectator

Omid Djalili - Namaste
The Persian Comedy Powerhouse performs his critically acclaimed new show.
Omid peacefully bows to his inner anger and unleashes a torrent of comedic vitriol upon the current state of this dangerously messed up planet.
No government gets a green card. No tyrant avoids a take down. No audience member leaves the theatre with an ounce of laughter left in them.
You have been warned.
'So hysterically funny and at the same time so poignant and powerful that calling it stand-up barely does it justice' Michael Levin, Huffington Post
With support from Boothby Graffoe.
Suitable for ages 16+ years.
